About
Located along Springhill School Road in Sebastopol, this project involves the ground-up construction of a custom residence designed to respond directly to its orchard setting and surrounding landscape. The scope focuses on delivering a clean, modern structure supported by a refined material palette and durable building systems suited for long-term performance.
From the outset, the team prioritizes a straightforward structural approach that supports open living spaces while maintaining efficiency in framing and layout. The great room and kitchen function as a continuous central space, requiring large-span openings and the integration of expansive glazing systems. These elements are carefully detailed to manage structural loads, weatherproofing, and thermal performance while framing views of the surrounding property.
Material selection and installation play a key role throughout the build. Interior finishes include natural wood millwork, matte surfaces, and stone elements, all installed with a focus on consistency and durability. Custom cabinetry and built-ins are fabricated and fitted to align with the overall layout, ensuring both function and clean integration across the main living areas.
The primary suite serves as a more private zone within the home and incorporates clerestory window assemblies to introduce natural light while maintaining privacy. The bathroom includes large-format tile, streamlined plumbing fixtures, and coordinated waterproofing systems to support long-term performance. A custom closet system maximizes storage within the available footprint.
Secondary spaces—including the pantry, powder room, and guest bathrooms—carry the same level of detailing and material continuity. Each area requires coordinated installation of cabinetry, fixtures, and finishes to maintain a consistent standard throughout the home.
Overall, the project reflects a disciplined construction approach that balances structural clarity, material consistency, and functional design. The result is a well-executed custom home that integrates modern building methods with a strong connection to its Sebastopol setting.
